Facile synthesis of symmetric bundle-like Sb2S3 micron-structures and their application in lithium-ion battery anodes

Chem Commun (Camb). 2016 Jun 8;52(49):7691-4. doi: 10.1039/c6cc03176e.

Abstract

A novel two-step oxidation-sulfuration route is developed to fabricate the symmetric bundle-like Sb2S3 micron-structure, in which hundreds of one-dimensional Sb2S3 nanowires are tied. As an anode material for lithium-ion batteries, the bundle-like Sb2S3 delivers a discharge capacity of 548 mA h g(-1) after 100 cycles, much higher than the rod-like one.
